Operating systems of days of yore
Computerworld recently published a review of 10 operating systems time has left
behind. From AmigaOS to BeOS to OS/2, they are gone but not forgotten. Some of
them were actually quite good; others had annoying, but possibly endearing,
quirks; still others may've made you want to put your computer through a wall.
What are some of your, if not favorite, then most memorable operating systems of
the past?
